Mercruiser drive to bell housing gasket kit. Sierra sells it in a bag! With no cardboard to protect it. Crazy. Got one from a mail order place and it was crunched up and ripped in a plastic bag with the o- rings.
Figured....I should have got it from iboats. So I looked on iboats and they had the same one that had a "D" at the end of the part number indicating " display packaging". So I ordered 4 figuring they would come on a cardboard sheet. Nope, just in a bag! All 4 were fine and I'm very happy with the purchase.
I just figured I would explain my experience so that others would be forewarned . That is...watch where you purchase something like this. Make sure they are reputable.
